Due to a shortage of skilled workers in Germany, there is a lack of production workers in the food industry, which is why many companies are looking for production workers in other Eastern European countries. When hiring production workers from abroad, e.g. from Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and other Eastern European countries, companies can expect several advantages:

1. Compensating for labor shortages:In some regions of Germany and in certain industries, there may be a shortage of qualified workers, particularly for simple manual tasks. Hiring production workers from abroad can help to alleviate this labor shortage.

2. Diversity and cultural diversity: Employing foreign factory workers can increase diversity in the workplace and bring in different cultural perspectives. This can enrich the working environment and contribute to a positive corporate culture.

3. Flexibility: Foreign employees in production can often be more flexible in terms of working hours and work requirements. This can be an advantage for companies that need to adapt to seasonal fluctuations or irregular working hours.

4. Professional competence: Some foreign manufacturing employees may bring specialized skills or experience that are in demand in certain industries or work areas. This can increase productivity and quality in production.

5. Language skills: If foreign unskilled workers speak German or English, they will be able to communicate better with colleagues and superiors. This facilitates integration into the working environment.

6. Cost efficiency: In some cases, foreign production workers can be hired at lower labor costs. This can be attractive for companies looking to reduce their production costs.

7. Work ethic and commitment: Foreign production workers who come to Germany to work can often be highly motivated and dedicated. They are often willing to work hard and focus on their tasks.
